Get Gardening

Autumn is upon us and it's a great time to hit reset on the garden. Summer crops are now done so its time to get those winter crops in if you haven't already. Plant winter vegetables like cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, silverbeet, spinach, brussel sprouts and beetroot in raised garden beds to help with drainage. Remember to protect your crops with slug bait as they will love to nibble on your Winter greens. Once pip and stone fruit trees lose their last leaves you can prune them on a fine dry day. Follow immediately with a spray of lime sulphate and copper spray to protect them against leaf curl, black spot, leaf spot and blight in Winter. Now is also the time to get those spring bulbs planted. But you don't have to wait until then for some colour. There are so many options for Winter colour - choose from the perfect P's -Poppy, Primlet, Primula, Polyanthus, or Pansies or perhaps try Snapdragons, Foxgloves, Cyclamens or Dianthus.

For all plantings remember to add compost and manure beforehand to replenish your soil after the Summer months.
